Podman is a lot like Docker: a tool for running OCI containers. While it maintains backwards compatibility with Dockerfile and docker-compose syntax, it offers a lot of other benefits:
daemonless: it can run containers without a daemon process running in the background.
Rootless: can run containers without root privileges
pods: can group containers into secluded pods, which share resources and network namespace
Podman has other features I haven’t explored yet, like compatibility with Kubernetes yaml file, and being able to run containers as systemd units.
Have you used podman before? What are your thoughts on it?
